Bank of America's Dead Drop To Rick Perry: "We Will Help You Out"
Should we be surprised, frightened, disgusted or simply say "we knew it", that in the informal mixer just after Texas Governor and Republican presidential candidate Rick Perry spoke at a Politics and Eggs breakfast in Bedford, New Hampshire, an unknown gentlemen approaches a casual Perry like an Ian Flemming character, and proceeds to dead drop the following: "Bank of America... We will help you out"... and silently moves on. At least we know now who is funding what, and whose interests potential future president Perry will be paid to defend.
Fast forward to precisely 40 minutes into the blow clip (full event can be found here).
And for those who believe the man is a plant, we believe it is James Mahoney, Director of Public Policy for BoA. You can see a photo of him here. He's on the board of directors for the New England Council, the sponsors of yesterday's Politics and Eggs breakfast.
Naturally, we would be delighted for Bank of America to refute this assumption.

Can somebody please capture this to YouTube before C-SPAN takes it down? This needs to go viral.

Thanks!
Perry is a fraud. He attended bilderberg. He supported forced vaccinations for our children. He is a globalist/elitist/anti american in sheeps clothing.
You simply cannot believe a word he says, because he is one of THEM.. a liar, just like Obama, Bush... the whole lot of 'em...
You guys are intelligent enough to separate the wheat from the chaff... go Ron Paul.
you mean the world wasn't created 10,000 years ago? I've been had

Ron Paul Money Bomb Tomorrow, August 20

Might be a good time to part with some of the last month's gains. Thank you Tyler.
I like you pill and I'm a Ron Paul supporter, but you need to change your avatar to get more money like a nude photo of a chick you aren't.
That's a pretty old clip...Why is it on the hit parade again now?
We already knew was he was a "familiar" who consorted with the Douche bankers...

A former Goldman Sachs VP named Peter Simonyi (who previously worked for the SEC) ended up working as a top staffer for Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) on the Oversight Committee under the name Peter Haller. He went on to argue against regulations on Wall Street. The Young Turks host Cenk Uygur breaks it down.

Are you sure Citi guy didn't say: brown duffle bag out back behind dumpster with large stash of unmarked bills.
My God !! This is so appalling....And yet, nothing happens to these f***ers....
JW - just a thought here.... that was way too obvious. Too easy. Plus, the media blackout on Ron Paul is just wierd. It is too "in-your-face."
What if this is all part of a bigger game to propel Ron Paul into office... then hand him the keys to a system that has been engineered to explode the moment he turns the key. The ultimate "up yours" - and to the sheeple, it might actually appear that the Fed was good and the anti-fed people are the anti-christ. So that when the system is rebuilt, the central banking scheme has a better chance of being reinstated (but a "new and improved" version of course).
I have thought about that scenario. What better way to discredit the liberty movement than to leave RP holding the bag during a collapse? Even as president, he would not have enough of a bully pulpit to override what everyone else would be saying would be the cause of the collapse. The sheep are not smart enough to see through the BS, otherwise we would have stopped this long ago.
This ship is going down, and the banksters would sure love to have someone else take the heat.
pods
Sounds like what they did to Andrew Jackson...
jackson was still a great president. ron paul will have "i killed the bank" on his grave, too. let's give him a chance. he might preside over a collapse — which we can blame on george w. obama — and then preside over the greatest national rebirth in the history of the world. the libertarian fdr. let's give him a chance, and hold off on the "ron paul is working for them" or "ron paul is a patsy" stuff.
Wasn't suggesting he is working for "them." His record really does indicate this is not the case. Rather just "spidey senses" going berzerk that some of the things happening now are just too "convienient." Probably nothing. But no harm done tossing out the idea for this crowd to chew on... (well, except for a few retards).
Are you serious? Who is to say Ron Paul isn't an alien plant here to harvest our brains? There comes a point where the conspiracy theories get a little too complicated and a little too ridiculous.
tell that to the anunnaki when they come back with the only REAL money... neptiods
you know, what better way to get as much gold out of the ground as possible before you arrive than to get the silly humans to trick themselves into believing it's valuable again without realizing the real reason why?

but he has really really reaaaalllllllyyy nice hair, and he was a male cheerleader in college. you don't expect us to vote for a humble medical doctor who tells the truth do you?
he was a male cheerleader? Go team!
I think they prefer to be called "Yell Kings" or something.

I thought I recognized Perry from somewhere else. Did he change his name from "Astley?" Or was it "Roll?"

Better watch out!
Sorry to correct you, and I hope you're okay with a Wikipedia source, but it's less than 10k years old (according to the Perrys of the world):
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young_Earth_creationism :
"The earliest post-exilic Jewish chronicle preserved in the Hebrew language, the Seder Olam Rabbah, compiled by Jose ben Halafta in 160 AD, dates the creation of the world to 3751 BC while the later Seder Olam Zutta to 4339 BC"
that's also because the Tablet of Nations (Genesis chap 10, I Chron 1: 4-23), which shows the unity of humanity, stands unique in ancient literature, one of the oldest family genealogies on earth gives a very precise lineage from the sons of Noah to us. For instance Ashkenaz in Gen10:3, a son of Gomer, (Ashkuza, Sake, Skythes or Scythians) an indo-Germanic tribe located south of Lake Van, branching out into Saxon, Scandia, Germany, Denmark.
The Bible is not a science book but legal/historical testaments. Yet no science has ever proven it wrong. Neither Evolution nor Creationism can be proven to be true, both are religions.
I vote for Paul. Ron, that is. He needs to create some kind of crisis to get into the news. Ya gotta play the game unfortuneately.
Creationism of the evangelical sort, i.e. a literal mapping of bibilical timelines is all but disproven by any reasonable interpretation of the geologic and cosmological record. Now the Catholic Church which has stated that the Big Bang is consistent with Creation by a deity is on a different footing... The Catholic Church figured out a while back that denial of science was a loosing proposition. They know how to move the goal posts...
What I don't get is how days could pass in Genesis before the Earth was created? Then I wonder if creation could ever be literally explained to people that can't figure out simple things like global climate.
Yes, this is a logical inconsistency, of course, the ambiguity of the "day" is used by both sides. Smart people have been spinning this stuff for centuries....
Another bit of scientific data is the flightless Cormorant found in the Galapagos.... Hard to reconcile that one.
I'm sorry, what exactly does the flightless Cormorant prove?
It is quite a strech for any intelligent design/creationist arguing that the age of the earth is 6000 years. Not to mention a host of other things...
And the flightless bird is the key to this argument? Isn't there a lot of geological phenomena that don't rely on the molecular clock?
There is too much evidence for any one piece to be key.... just an example off the top of my head.
Oh okay. We don't see eye to eye but I want you to know that I respect you.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p2yInPfqMyE
Much appreciated.... it is remarkable what a little respect can do for the tone and content of the discourse...
You guys are making this too complicated.
1. If God made Adam at 20 years old, could he not also make the earth 6 thousand years ago at the age of X billions?
As a devout 'Scientist', I can argue in favor of intelligent design/creationism by merely playing with some Physical Constants.
For instance, if Time can be adjusted we can do ANYTHING! Sort of like the way radioactive decay rates are increasing
_lately_ due to the localized changing of the value of E. Physicists today now postulate that the various 22 permanent
constants are more localized phenomena, assuming differing values as one travels across the Universe.
Or multiverses, as the case may be.
A growing body of evidence suggests that gravity was weaker in the age of the Brontosaurus, allowing them
to raise their preposterously long necks upright. It does seem highly suspicious that the embedded mathematical
rules governing the behavior of a single hydrogen atom also encodes you, your computer, a network connection
to ZeroHedge, and a pesky cocaine habit. Just sayin'
I take the localized constants as an unwinding of physics dogma. Just let science be science. The Bible and God are a matter of faith. It itself admits this numerous times. The Israelites that experienced Passover first hand were impatient with Moses and the Commandments. Judas witnessed Jesus' miracles first hand and still betrayed him. Life is a miracle we all experience everyday. Whether we want to believe and have faith is a choice we must make freely.
Well there is evidence that alpha, the fine structure constant, is not constant at the level of 1 part in 100,000 if you go out a red-shift z > 1...
Sorry, that don't cut it...
Kirk Cameron, the child-actor from the sitcom Growing Pains, has done extensive research proving the absurdity of "scientists" like Steven Hawking and Richard Dawkins. A simple YouTube search through Kirk Cameron's videos and you'll begin to think all the heavy hitters in cosmology and astrophysics like Hawking and Dawkins have been duped.
Silly rabbit, Fossils are tricks!
Did you even understand what I wrote?
I am very happy for Kirk. Let me know when saves the world.
they had to pick between denying science and denying molestation. They thought they were SAVING money at the time. A lot like any other empire's hubral folly
Pinched from Wiki:
The International Theological Commission in a July 2004 statement endorsed by Cardinal Ratzinger, then president of the Commission and head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, now Pope Benedict XVI, includes this paragraph:
..." it is virtually certain that all living organisms have descended from this first organism."
They continue to make the same mistakes. Agree with popular explanations and when these are shown to be dumb, just have another International Theological Commission. What a joke. Well, at least they tried to cover their bases with the use of the word 'virtually'. Why even bother? They were already behind the curve virtually immediately when they published this in 2004.
Religions evolves to fit the times (modernization. Look at those main religions centuries ago and its obvious.
You guys are making this too complicated.
1. If God made Adam at 20 years old, could he not also make the earth 6 thousand years ago at the age of X billions?
2. Alternate point. What if the speed of light was actually slowing and has not been a fixed 186000 miles per second, wouldn't that throw off the age calculations of the universe, earth, etc.?
1. If God made Adam at 20 years old, could he not also make the earth 6 thousand years ago at the age of X billions?
So the earth was in existence millions of years before Adam? According to the Bible they were created in the same week.
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
2. Alternate point. What if the speed of light was actually slowing and has not been a fixed 186000 miles per second, wouldn't that throw off the age calculations of the universe, earth, etc.?
Wouldn't it still be slowing down? Or did it level off and now its staying the same speed. Or just fluctuated during those 6000 yrs.?
Naw, you gotta study your bible better:
James Ussher (sometimes spelled Usher) (4 January 1581 – 21 March 1656) was Church of IrelandArchbishop of Armagh and Primate of All Ireland between 1625–56. He was a prolific scholar, who most famously published a chronology that purported to establish the time and date of the creation as the night preceding Sunday, 23 October 4004 BC, according to the proleptic Julian calendar.
obviously! it was created 6000 years ago!
I love how they both know how to do the dance, barely make eye contact, slide past each other and it's a done deal.
I mean we're no virgins in here, but man seeing it in action is something else.
wow.
No it was was not. Earth is billions of years old however many are decieved and lied to about the truth of God and Jesus. There are 3 earth ages. before the fall of satan, after the fall of satan and the eternity. The world was perfect and all humans were in there perfect form, satan fell and took 1/3. God destroyed that age to give a chance to be born innocent(in flesh) to what happened to give a choice. Satan falls, God destroys the earth as it is(dinosuars and such) katabol. end of first earth age. second earth age he creates people and changes earth to what it is now. the earth was not just void and without form in ancient texts it is written the earth was MADE void. so many phony religions and so-called ones like cathoic(which are not). so 2nd earth age starts and we are put into flesh. God made ALL races in the 6th day. notice he says let us make them in OUR image. also adam and eve were not created until after 7th day. so starts 2nd earth age and goes utnil Jesus returns and all flesh once more is no more and after the millenium or Lord's day(oen day of God is 1 thousand of mans) then white throne judgement then finally the eternity. as for dinosaurs they are mentioned in Job ch40. have a kid draw what he describes seeing. with a tail as big as a tree and a animal so big no trap could stop him. no hippo has a tree tail no mammoth has a tree tail. what creatures had tails that big? and other features as well. Now the 3 earth ages are described in many palces jsut to name one for a reference is 2nd peter. you have to be able to see past traditions of men and lies of men and such to see the truth. so many false religons and teachings. so much govt funded science and history. so many corrupt folks in hihg places. for certain men crept in unawares...
Why did God rest on the seventh day? How and why does a diety rest?
diety?
Yeh... the Big Guy wanted to take a few lbs off....
Sorry Deity.
Yes, there are periods of time that are accounted for and which people mix up.
God's planet (earth) was created billions of years ago. The planet was "designed" to cycle in order to refresh itself -a very brilliant design at that!- and it's this cycling that cause a lot of confusion. This cycling is the changing from glacial to inter-glacial and from interglacial to glacial periods. The inter-glacial period lasts roughly 10,000 years (plus or minus a couple of thousand). Each time the cycle hits mankind is pretty much wiped out, resulting in knowledge/history being erased. Higher order of lifeforms have to undergo the whole process of understanding the "intelligent design" all over again, at it doesn't seem to occur until the inter-glacial period has nearly passed.
So th earth was already in existence and was recreated? According to the Bible the earth and man were created (not recreated)in the same week.
The Genesis spin doctors are out I see.... have fun arguing with these closed minds...
I'm getting dizzy.
dup
dup
You are spot on. Perry was also behind the Trans-Texas Corridor toll road proposal, held secret meetings with the Spanish company Cintra which would fund the project and then get exclusive rights for 100 years to collect tolls and operate all the gas stations,etc. within the corridor. The corridor was the first leg of what was intended to go all the way to Canada as an intergal part of the planned North American Union. Fortunately, the meltdown in 2008 has put plans for the corridor on the shelf for now.
This must be stopped at all costs.
It's nothing but a highway to hell to facilitate job jacking.
Keep us updated.
Heads up. TransCanada's Keystone XL pipeline from Alberta, Canada to the Texas gulf coast is a second run at the TransTexas Corridor. The pipeline will set the course of the transportation/communication artery.

Eminent domain coming at 'ya.
Thanks, Tricky Ricky.
The following link is to the TX gov. website's speech archive. In the linked speech, Perry says, "Vincente Fox's vision of an OPEN BORDER is one I embrace."
In the same speech, he brags about giving tax dollars via medicaid healthcare to MEXICAN children on the MEXICAN SIDE of the border!
My son attends UT Business School. We received a manditory notice of how much of MY son's tuition goes to "grants" to fund in-state tuition for ILLEGALS: $400 of the $9000 bill goes to illegals!
Perry is a tool, a slime ball, a wicked and evil fake "Christian"! He is a complete globalist operative who fools all the idiot Christian neocons. I want to pull my hair out over it!

Enjoy!!! : )
when you understand that many Christians embrace the notion that "earth" is meant to be a trial / tribulation / proving ground, a sort of "hell" which they navigate to their "rewards in Heaven" which is Paradise, the end game of eternal bliss, yadda yadda - much of what goes down "in their name" makes more sense - including Zionist Christians, and their existence & support of Zionist Hebrew agenda - it can boil down to a bunch of people all playing games with each other, believing that their "side" is gonna get the goods, and the "others" will suffer the Godly wrath. . .
the archetype of nationstates, same sort of mind trip, nothing real about any of it, but it's believed to be true, so it is, hmmm. . . "fake Christian" is just another version of being a Christian - there are soooo many versions out there. . . none of whom I'd trust, since the basic premise is still, Earth is a lowly space to be exploited, Heaven is where the riches lie. . . *cough*
it was not meant to be a trial and trib we forced it to be. it was once perfect and we lived in perfect form. we messed it up. many so-called christian branches do in fact support zionist or pagan deals. if you read and understand bible it actually spells all of that out plainly. so much of religion and such has been infiltrated and twisted. confusion is running rampant. so many dont even know they are of 12 tribes of israel/judah. 10 migrated north and then spread. 2 remained which make up judah. lot of mixing has gone on since though and a lot of certain men crept in religion, govt, politics, science fields, on and on. all of this relgion stuff has been told and made plain. its peoples own blinders and traditions that make none sense of the truth of God and Jesus(yes Jesus is not orignal name i know but it is easily reconinzed by unlearned folks so i use that). Heaven is going to be on earth as well. after millenium God puts hit throne back here. no flyin away(rapture lies) none of that type stuff. i can tell you have never actually read or studied any bible. you really should actually read and study it and history from many perspectives and such. i didnt believe or trust until i actually took the time. there is truth out there in this messed up confused and infiltrated, subverted and coampartmentalised world.
Hm... it was perfect yet it isn't?
Go forth and multiply on a finite planet is perfect? I'm just not seeing how any rationalizing can reconcile this conflict.
As soon as religion gets pitched from one person to the next it's tainted. If you have to let it out of your head it's no longer about YOUR connection and becomes more about controlling others. Give money/labor to those who don't produce, those who only speak (the very same things that you can discern yourself, on your own*).
* Can a blind, deaf and dumb person follow Christianity (or any other institutional religion)? If God speaks, then how does such a person hear?
It's all about warning us to be wary of ourselves. All of nature is about deception, humans are no different (they are, after all, OF nature, something that modern religions try and tell us we are not, because authority/power requires the acknowledgement of superiority).
Well, I guess you are dissing ME! I am a Christian, but a thinking, discerning one. I'm sure we would not agree upon our philosophies, so I won't even go there. But I WILL say that your interpretation of what the motivations are to "be a Christian" are not mine. I think you may misinterpret many who call themselves believers, as you can't possibly know their innermost being.
My point was really that many Christians truly ARE off-base in how they let their "faith" influence their politics, and are too easily deceived and led naively into one political stance. But it is not Christianity's fault, it is the fault of mindless individuals who check their brain at the door! There are Jews, and there are Zionists...and I know the difference!
In short, don't lump us all together, please. It's unkind.
There are Jews, and there are Zionists...and I know the difference!
True, and many Jews have been wronged by the Zionists.
"Fortunately, the meltdown in ..." let's say 2011, especially in the Eurozone and Spain, might put a stop to this crap.
I wonder how much in the way of U.S. dollars Banc Santander is bleeding out of e.g. Sovereign Bank here in New England.

Perry is a douchebag!
you sir, have just insulted douchebags....and their relatively sacred honor
Fair enough. Sorry douchebags.
I am not a fan of Perry's, but having some ass-wipe whisper those words during a drive-by doesn't exactly make him guilty of anything..., yet! Lot of people here pulling an Obama "talk first, think second" opinion.
Just saying...
Maybe, except for the fact that the message sounds like it is in response to a previous inquiry or discussion, and not some random unsolicited comment.
Actually he has a point. But perhaps what should happen is he should be grilled on this issue.
Could it be a political assassin whom somebody wants to make people think that bank of america "has his back" therefore showing how the GOP is all about the "fat cats"? Both are equally plausible.
Ding, we have a winner! These offers are not made in public, in front of TV cameras with microphones. Every politician knows they can get as much money as they want from BofA. They are the primary supplier of campaign loans.
Does anyone know how much BofA has loaned to politicians over the years, that has never been paid back? Other than with taxpayer bailouts, of course.

"These offers are not made in public, in front of TV cameras with microphones."
I forgot about the instruction/play book...
Geez, no one EVER fucks up? Even slimy banksters can get carried away with their emotions, perhaps this slimeball just let his emotions violate playbook rules?
But... this is all soap opera shit. They are ALL corrupt. They ALL seek power. End of fucking story. Oh, and never mind that the entire system is predicated on a MAJOR flaw (of perpetual growth on a finite planet).
Ya maybe...
Whole lotta maybes going on here.
EXACTLY -- It was not Perry going to Bank of American Asking THEM to help him! I am sure at this point Bank of America is planting people at EVERY political rally saying they will help them -- they need all the help they can get. Basically - given the real possibility they will be tits up by the time the election rolls around - their "Help" may be offering office space to Perry to rent for his campaign organizers to use.
If the guy is genuinely from BofA, my best wild-arsed guess would be this: BofA has an established relationship with all the other front-runners, so they don't need to pounce on them at greeting sessions. But Perry's a different story: his sudden arrival as a leading contender blindsided them, so now they're jumping up and down trying to get his attention. Perry apparently isn't hurting for money - and has to be aware of the risks of getting linked to BofA, especially right at the moment - so BofA is much more eager to talk to him than he is to talk to them.
If that's the story, then it seems to confirm the opinion on Wall Street that BofA's people can't do anything right. If this video gets any mainstream attention, they they've probably made an enemy of Perry, or at least given him good reason to distance himself from them in public. Which might be really unhelpful if BAC has a Lehman moment in 2013.
Insightful, made me see the clip in a different light, thanks. what a crazy dance.
It is wrong to judge by appearances.
In the same way, the man climbing out of your window in a stripy jumper, a mask and a great hurry might merely be lost on the way to a fancy-dress party, and the man in the wig and robes at the focus of the courtroom might only be a transvestite who wandered in out of the rain.
Snap judgements can be so unfair.
JUNK!
Not even close on your comps.
HA - Gee - I hope you are never walking down the street and some dude who is a total stranger comes up and whispers he wants to give you a blow job -- because then i would have to label you a FAG!
so much sarcasm, so little awareness
How did the plant control Perry's nonchalant cloak and dagger response?
Douchebags everywhere feel insulted for having been compared to the gardasil governor.
There has always been a douchebag in Parliament, and Lord willing there always will be.

First banksters get politicians to save their "TBTF" criminal asses with trillions in public money, then their champions, S&P, stick it to the government due to the government's "deficit problem," and, completing the three-step, business turns around and blames government for its own still fucked-up mess.
Meanwhile, Marked To Myth corporates are still AAA.
First government gets raped and robbed, then gets put on display in the public square as everybody's whipping boy.
Fucking sociopaths, is all I can say.
What they need is a POTUS who will rally the public to hate the whipping boy and embrace the slavery of "austerity" as a heroic rejection of that putative root evil.
Like stealing candy from a baby.
It gets worse bob, Denninger (yeah, I know, not liked here) had a piece of a GS guy who changed his name and went to work for Issa and is now writing letters getting CONgress to back off regulating derivatives.
This shit just cannot get any more slimy and corrupt.
A GS guy changes his name then goes to work for the head of the CONgressional oversight committee, lobbying other CONgress critters to look away from derivatives.
And people think that "voting" in the right people will clean up this putrid, oozing pustule of a government.
pods
Yeah, I've been posting that link (found it in my mailbox.) Of course, there are also the many cases where GS staff have gone from one government job to another, keeping out ahead of the work flow on their own legislation. And their names are public domain. Of course, this happens with every industry and "government" department. Fuckin A.
The name-changing part has a nice spin, though. And GS!

icing on the cake is he changed his name to honor his Transylvanian heritage - seriously. Long the vampire squid.
Haller tells TPM that he changed his name after his employment at Goldman Sachs to honor his Translyvanian heritage. In his comment, he did not dispute that he worked on Issa’s letter to bank regulators.

lols.
You have to hand it to them. Some of them are exceptionally good actors.
worth repeating:
man will never be free until the last politician is strangled with the entrails of the last banker - Diderot
Aye!
The only thing anyone can do to stop them at this point is to register as a Republican to vote for Ron Paul in the primary, he's the ONLY one that could possibly throw a monkey wrench into their sordid plans. If any of the other clowns get it we will for sure be doomed to more of the same. I am awed at their ability to engineer a "heads we win, tails you lose" political system, it's pure, unrestrained evil.
With very few exceptions, they're all douchebags. That's the problem.
We need to take private money out of politics completely. Consciences might not be so rare then.
The lie is that they serve the public. The reality is they serve the people without whose money they could not get elected.
Ha... I will take you one step further. We need to take politicians out of politics.
The major problem, one of the major problems, for there are several, with governing people is that of who you get to do it. Or, rather of who manages to get people to let them do it to them. To summarize: it is a well known and much lamented fact that those people who most want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it. To summarize the summary: anyone who is capable of getting themselves made president should on no account be allowed to do the job. To summarize the summary of the summary: people are a problem. - Douglas Adams, The Hitch Hickers Guide to the Galaxy
There's alot of truth in that, which is why I'm still laughing. True, true, true!
But it's not the whole truth. Somebody's gotta do the job.
I'd be willing to accept just a whole lot less corruption. And money makes a very big difference, imo.
We're absolutely doomed if it doesn't get excluded. Look at the kind of assholes who are drawn to sleeping with it now.
I disagree with your point, Bob, that "Somebody's gotta do the job".
I think we'd all figure out a way to get along and live in a more productive and peaceful world if no one was doing that "job".
Sure we would. All the freaks that now people the world, both corporate and government, would suddenly rejoin the human family. Or at least stop having kids.
Government, even if to some extent it must function as a social policeman, is necessary. Which is not to elevate it very far, to my mind.
If you disagree, perhaps you'll see me as a "statist." If so, I plead guilty.
Settle down, you two. I'll settle the point once and for all. No one has to do the job of POTUS. Obama hasn't been "present" and on the job for the last 3 years and it has made absolutely no difference at all!
Er....wait a minute......are we on the verge of some kind of collapse?
Once we all realize we do not truly need leaders in our lives and the fact that we are all very well capable of understanding what is right and what is wrong within our own live we will truly see that we are all leaders. Who is to tell me what is right and what is wrong in my own life? Do you live my life, do you walk in my shoes, no.

Thank you I did like his article. Good to see like minded thinkers out there.
The qualities necessary to gain office are narcissism, a giant ego, no morals, and a willingness to sell youself to the to the highest bidders. At least with a monarchy there's a minute possibility of getting an enlightend leader.
I should be forced to pay tax dollars to go to a campaign to help the candidate that wants to take more of my tax dollars?
Hell no.
We have, and will always have, the best government money can buy.
Lets see MSM show this clip. But I won't hold my breath. He was Caught! I hope this clip has been copied. I can't believe that this little episode was done in public like that.
Let's say the MSM does show the clip... what does that tell you? It tells me that this was by design and most likely isn't what we would make it out to be.
Smart... +1
It's hard to argue against. And not only because it's impossible to disprove by form.
My guess is that Dylan Ratigan--a regular ZH reader--will have it on his show this afternoon.
That's MSM . . . or, even worse to some, MSNBC.
The guy is gonna get fired or Spitzer'd or suicided sure as shit. But watch what he's up to.
I can't believe he's still there. I recently wrote that his continued existence at MSNBC causes me to question some of my somewhat firmly held beliefs regarding the MSM. He seems to be a sincere voice.
Agreed. And he's not somebody who impresses me personally in any way. He's not smooth as a talking head should be. Hell, he's sometimes so inarticulate that you'd have to be in his fucking family to fully follow what he's saying. And he's clearly a libertarian.
Honestly, I can't say that I feel a liking for him.
But what he's doing is fucking amazing.
My guess he's around primarily because they get a ratings spike when he rants, very like the movie Network, and by all reports their overall ratings have been declining. The Corleone advice (keep your friends close, and your enemies closer) may also be at play - if the stuff starts getting too crazy (too close to the hands that feed), there'll be some step over the line that will be the lever to discredit the rest, or a quiet talking to to push something that will do the same, again as in Network.
Infrastructure bank = fiscal stimulus of some kind, with lots of skimming for the operators, and cementing (pun?) established networks of union and other connected job dispensers (as opposed to creators).
The real rant is a cry for leadership, which IMO is an open invitation for just the kind of increasing government results that proved themselves inadequate in the 1930s and whenever else they've been tried (except, of course, for those getting paid). Or maybe worse, and we get the strong leader some claim to want. As to that, Aesop had it right - be careful what you wish for: http://www.aesopfables.com/cgi/aesop1.cgi?2&TheFrogsAskingforKing. See any number of 20th and 21st century examples.
The strong leadership that's needed is leadership in governmental restraint. Maybe Ron Paul, but just remember that US gov't ended Reagan's eight years larger than when he started.
SO, the Ron Paul plant http://www.unepfi.org/fileadmin/events/2005/roundtable/images/20051025_press_conference.jpg
Is actually James Mahoney of BoA seen in the middle of the picture in the link above. DAMN!!!! That Ron Paul sure is slimey.
Wow, great work Dick Head! (man that is funny when it comes out)
It is even more enlightening that a BOA briber cannot get a little back room time with a candidate. Must be that GS had all the back rooms booked? Is BOA swinging for the fences trying to stay alive?

I am so fucking sick of the banksters owning us. Fuck them. Hope to see them end up where they belong.
Lots of light poles Dr. No shortages at all. What sucks is that plenty of neighborhood bankers will be strung up along with the Banksters. When the sheep stampede, they will take down plenty of innocents. In fact, they will take down mainly innocents.
The banksters have already thought about this, and will be far removed from the herd.

It's worse than that: if and when it does come to avenging mobs (literal ones or not), we'll probably see some of the biggest culprits at the front of the crowds, shouting orders.
